The above indicates a problem with your C++ compiler.  The reason is
found in the file "config.log":

The above indicates a problem with your C++ compler installation. Fix
the compiler installation and then try to reinstall the netCDF package.

If you cannot fix the problem with the C++ compiler, then you can tell
the configure script to ignore the C++ interface by setting the CXX
environment variable to the empty string before executing the configure
script. For example:

    $ rm config.cache
    $ export CXX=
    $ ./configure >configure.log 2>&1

The above indicates a problem with your Fortran-90 compiler because the
statement that it can't compile conforms to the Fortran-90 standard.
Your Fortran-90 compiler is older than ours and we cannot reproduce the
problem on our newer compiler.  I suggest that you either update your
Fortran-90 compiler or tell the configure script to ignore the
Fortran-90 interface by setting the environment variable F90 to the
empty string.  For example

    $ rm config.cache
    $ export FC=/bin/f77
    $ export FFLAGS='-64 -O -nocpp'
    $ export F90=
    $ ./configure >configure.log 2>&1

Dear Sir,
According to your guidance, I have installed the netCDF successfully.
Thank you very much!
